A Run Through Home!

The King's Javelin that the leader cast aside sprang to life and flew at the Leader. Meanwhile, Crown's eyes were on something entirely different. From the corner of his vision he swore he saw something like a hammer destroy one of the Navis. Whether it was hostile or friendly, he couldn't decide.

"James, did you see what happened?" Crown inquired his NetOp.

"See what?"

"Nevermind then, my Lord. Was nothing."

In the meantime, Crown waited to gague wherever the hammer came from.

A chill traveled down Tetsujin's spine as the words of this figure passed through his mind. A familiar feeling seemed to engulf him, filling his very soul; a strong blend of courage, excitement, and even fear.

Yes, fear.

"Oh hell no." shouted the navi, charging his way toward the stun rod-wielding heelnavi at top speed. "There's no way you're stealing my glory."

When he was less than 3 feet away from the heelnavi, he leaned his entire body back, shifting himself into a vicious slide, intent on two possible actions: the slide itself would trip the heelnavi, where Tetsujin would then grab hold of it as he fell. Should the heelnavi move, he would instead grab hold of the navi's moving leg. The action would then be followed by swinging and throwing the heelnavi's entire body like a large club at one of his allies, leaving them wide open to clawed frenzy as they attempted to catch or evade him.

The King's Javelin sprung to life and approached the leader from behind. However, he erected a barrier which protected the boss and went flying back at Crown. The navi caught his weapon back and dodged the incoming shots from the leader and the Shotgun navi.
Meanwhile, Tetsujin bitchslapped one Heelnavi into another, EJOing the first. Then he went into a frenzied attack, slashing furiously at the Navi with the brass knuckles, EJOing him as well.
Then his Rageclaw shattered, probably due to overuse.
The Shotgun navi was suddenly impaled through with a flaming blade, coming out of nowhere, the Heelnavi coughed as he fell to his knees, heavily damaged. The blade withdrew into nothingness.
The leader growled as he observed his surrounding, holding his gun close to him. "Where the hell are you, bastard! Show yourself!" More gunfire ensued from the two remaining Heelnavis, but hit nothing.

Crown hears a ruffling of a cloak behind him and a small whisper, "I leave the finish to you." The voice was soft, not a threat of any sort, for now.

"Damn straight!!!" shouted Tetsujin, his fist extended toward his final pair of enemies in triumph. He cracked his knuckles with excitement as he slowly stepped approached the shotgun-wielding heelnavi. "Well, well, gun-boy. Besides your esteemed leader, you're all that remains. I'm a fan of fair fights, so let's just make sure you can't snipe in on my buddy anymore, shall we? Don't worry, though. I'll make sure you go out in style."

An eerie glow began to form around his body as he spoke, a swirl of energy flowing around his body in a bright cascade of light. His ki was amassing, seemingly taking physical form as he harnessed its power.

In a quick burst of speed, he charged at the gunner in a linear fashion, tightening his fists as he focused ki into his fists for maximum punching power. It would be a bull charge; he would keep running until he landed a hit with his fists at full speed, and release his explosive power with both of them.

"Your ass is grass..."

Crown visibly stiffened when he heard the voice and the swishing of cloaks. The finish was his. Crown didn't know who or what it belonged to, but as far as he could tell, it was friendly.

A feral grin grew on Crown's mouth. The leader was his, now. "Lord James, the RageClaw." Crown said simply. Having not seen nor heard the voice, the teenager was slightly puzzled at the sudden change in his Navi's attitude, but complied anyways.

In a small flash of light, Crown received the pair of claws on his hands. Keeping himself low to the ground, he charged the HeelNavi leader, swinging.

The two navis lay the smackdown on the last of the Heelnavis, successfully EJOing them.
"Damn punks... underestimated... them...where did those weapons come from... ugh..." the lead groaned before disappearing in a column of purple light.

A flutter of a cloak indicated the other precense was still there and slowly retreating. What to do about that?

"Another group bites the dust." said Tetsujin, calmly patting his hands together in a simulation of hand dusting. "But sheesh, who the hell was that trying to interfere with my fun? These deadbeats had more fight in them before that guy came along. Damn party crashers."

"He was strong..." said Mokujin quietly, drifting into deep thought momentarily. "You parade around proclaiming your strength to the world, and yet you get upstaged by the cliche mysterious stranger... Disappointing, Tetsujin..."

"HEY!" responded the navi, pointing angrily at his operator through the screen of his PET. "Don't go dissing me, pretty boy. It's not like it's my fault you did what you did to me..."

"Only you are to blame for your failures... As you learn your lesson, you will slowly regain what you lost..."

"Yeah, yeah, whatever. Just make sure it happens. Things are nowhere near as fun this way..."

(Sorry sorry. I've lost my inspiration to write, also I've been busy with other things, so I really haven't the time to do this sort of stuff.)

"You!" Crown shouted at the retreating cloak. "I just wish to know your purpose, why you have decided to aid us! Also if possible, would you tell us your name?"

The sound of ruffling cloaks stopped and the figure, though not perceptibly, turned its head toward Crown at hearing his question. A sigh could be heard as the invisible entity began, "I eliminate those I deem treacherous to the networks with my own and my operator's power, as for a name... know me as... 'Black Card' for now, until we meet again, travelers." One more great ruffling of cloaks and the presence couldn't be detected any longer.
Oh well, let's continue on, shall we?

"Blah, blah, blah..." mumbled Tetsujin waving his hand in expression of his irritation, leaning against a nearby wall out of boredom. "Now that ol' hero of justice is gone, can we move on? My blood/ass-kicking level has diminished a whole .10 in this short period of time, and I the side-effects of the deficiency is me getting very pissed off."

The navi then proceeded to punch in the wall, leaving a large hole in the wake of his fist as he settled himself down.

"Let's move on then Tetsujin. We're still both very capable of fighting."

-BATTLE 7! FIGHT FOR YOU LIIIIIIIIIIIVES!-

Once again, outnumbered. But in Crown's eyes, that's all they had going for them. If they played their cards carefully...

Crown summoned both Spiral Frames. With a simple move of his left hand, he both combined the Frames and absorbed and redirected energy towards Tetsujin. He needed it. He fought like a Berserker. Another wave of his hand and the again formed King's Javelin came down on a Metool.

When he was done, Crown crouched slightly. An attack made towards him would be dodged by rolling to the side.

"Tch, more wimps." said Tetsujin in irritation, waving his hand in the direction of the group of virii, wrist relaxed in the act of the classic "limp wrist" taunt. "It's a shame, really."

"Finish it quickly..." said Mokujin, inserting the Rage Claw chip into his PET as he gave his orders. "And try not to get hurt this time..."

"Yaddayadda..." responded the navi as he made a quick dash toward the first target, trailing dust in short burst of speed, the Rage Claws forming around his hands in a swirling flash of data. He'd begin quick stab aimed to go through the Metool's face, followed by a toss in the air that would then close with a powerful swipe; a shot intended for the kill. Normally he'd add more flair, but with the number of enemies surrounding him, he knew to maintain some degree of defense, and was prepared to dodge anything that may come his way.

The dynamic duo springs into action once more! Crown throws a burst of healing energy at his ally, healing Tetsujin to full HP, before spearing a small Metool with the King's javelin! A counterattack from the other Metool is then foiled by Tetsujin, who bats the enemy aside with his first strike but, sadly, misses with the second. With a swordfighter's instinct, he manages to sense the Spooky behind him, and dodges out of the way just in time. Crown likewise dodges a Pulsebat shot, but is hit by the tongue of an unexpected second Spooky.

(Nevermind, read that completely wrong.)

"Be more careful, Tetsujin. Your vital signs read dangerously low." Crown says, his voice calm with a hint of worry. With a single thought, Crown recalled the Shotgun data, and along with help from his targeting systems, he aimed at a space in between both Ghost viruses. It was risky, but a success would defeat both viruses and leave them with less to worry about.

"I realize you loathe the thought of being more careful, but if you don't, you might just lose."

(...??? You healed Tetsujin, and he's at full. You were at 50, and got hit by a 30 damage attack.)

"Lecturing me, even after getting a face full of ghost tongue?" laughed Tetsujin as he regained his posture. "You're quite the comedian, Knight boy. Be more concerned about yourself."

It was clear to Tetsujin that Crown had been weakened considerably. At this point, it would take little to knock him out of the game for good. Thus, he'd do one of the things he did best: piss off his enemy.

"Heatshot, Shotgun" he said, signaling Mokujin to slot in the respective battle chips, resulting in the navi's left and right clawed fists burning bright red with explosive power. "Time to garner a bit of attention..."

With those words, he performed a deadly cross with his left, aimed to the face of the metool he had injured; an attack that would result in a devastating explosion near it, likely to damage the Spooky in that position. Using the momentum from that blow would result in a powerful spin of the body, performing a powerful hook that would result in a potent explosion of flame, meant to engulf the two Pulsbats he aimed for.

Even if the attacks didn't hit their mark, the large portrayal of their effects would result in the attention of the virii to likely be drawn to Tetsujin's position.

Action1: Shotgun on MetoolB (50) + Spread1 on Spooky (50) A Accuracy
Action2: Heatshot on Pulsbat A (40) + Spread on Pusbat B (40) A Accuracy

Crown blasts into the fray, knocking down one Spooky, as the other maneuvers out of the way. However, Tetsujin's own Shotgun is able to nail both Metool and Spooky, the following Heatshot hits one Pulsebat, but the other rises quickly into the air to avoid damage. The remaining Pulsebat screeches its ultrasonic waves at the combatants, but both manage to dodge.

"Is that it? And here I was thinking that the fight would last longer..." said Tetsujin, disappointed in the utter lack of strength his opponents possessed. "I guess I'm just too strong for my own good."

His knuckles crackling beneath his claws, Tetsujin's attention returned to the nearby Pulsebat, his demonic grin expanding as he charged forth in a burst of speed, his arm extended in preparation for a furious wave of slashes, intent upon shredding his opponent into confetti within seconds; a move that would transform into a swift pass to add a mighty bit of flair to his motions.

"I win again..."
